Enjoy another round of hypothetical questions!

Several years and hundreds of beers later, we've actually hit Episode 100! And though we had grand plans to celebrate our centennial, current events dictate a more limited scope. So we are saving the live show with pyrotechnics and lasers for a later date and trying something a little different from our usual fare. Tonight we're going to get a little bit steamy with a look into the sexual awakening of your hosts.

As we discussed in Episode 88, most kids have a shoplifting phase at some point when they're growing up. Some get stung right away and give up, others run with it until they fly too close to the sun. Our friend Dan and his schoolmates in Evanston found the third path.

The human mind is truly a wonder to behold. Capable of incredible feats of logic and creativity, as well as ludicrous flights of fancy. But it's also terribly fragile, and it's a tragic cliche that sometimes those who burn the brightest also crash the hardest. Matthew tells the story of one of his friends who might have flown too close to the sun.

At first glance, playing a show on a commercial chicken farm doesn't sound like an ideal choice of venue. But when you're first starting out, any place with a stage and a PA system is a step above playing shows in backyards and basements. Sometimes you just gotta go where the people are, even if it's Tom Brown's Poultry Farm.

In the summer between sophomore and junior year in high school, Matthew is invited to join a Catholic service mission to Tijuana. Sensing an opportunity for unsupervised shenanigans in a foreign country, he does all the fundraising and gets on the bus. Taco stands, beaches, other kids there with no parents - what could go wrong?

In a turn of events that is becoming more and more commonplace these days, Nathan and Rikki got the ‘rona, despite constant vigilance and full vaccination. In this special episode, Nathan gives us the scoop on how things went for them over the two weeks they were dealing with the virus. Afterward, Matthew tells the tale of his bout with scarlet fever back in the day.

Hating winter weather as a grown-up is understandable, especially in the northern latitudes. With ice storms, atmospheric rivers, polar vortexes and other awesome sounding meteorological jargon, living in the winter presents some grim challenges. But all that doom and gloom aside, there are moments in the winter that have their own unique magic, and today we'd like to celebrate those times.

It's not every day one finds a team of coworkers that they get along with outside of work, let alone people one considers family. Once in a great while, that perfect storm comes along and it's amazing while it lasts. It really only takes one person to fuck it up though.

The average person's knowledge of gambling strategy can be boiled down to the iconic chorus of noted sage and rotisserie king Kenny Rogers' timeless epic:

You've got to know when to hold 'em

Know when to fold 'em

Know when to walk away

And know when to run

But today's guest is not your average person. Our friend Jesse knows a thing or two about card games and strategy, and he decided to put his knowledge to the test with his crack team of fellow nerds on the blackjack table in Vegas.
